Face

Foundation: Make sure foundation matches the skin tone or is slightly darker than your dancer and blend into hairline, ears and neck.

Blush:

Find cheekbone with fingers. Place blush brush at hairline just below cheekbone and sweep pink/peach blush colour UNDER cheekbone and the sweep UP over apples of the cheeks. Don't forget to blend the blush out.

Highlighter: Using a white highlighter or white shimmery eye shadow add line above the blush, on the inner corners of the eye, just underneath the eyebrow and in the cupids bow of the lips.

Eyes

Eye shadow: Use a cream/ivory shadow on the lids. Use a medium brown shadow on the lid. Add a dark brown in the crease of the eye lid blending out. Using an angled brush, dip into the dark brown shadow and shade underneath the bottom eye line and only go halfway.

Eyeliner:

Line the top of the lid in a dark black eyeliner. Up to you what liner you like to use - but we have found the liquid liner to be the easiest.

Mascara:

Black mascara on top and bottom lashes. 12's, 14s and Open troupe are required to wear false eyelashes.

Lips: Line the lips with either a red (same shade to lipstick) or a natural pink lip liner. On top of the liner add red lipstick.
